This dance was the first social undertaking of our " letter" men this I year. Though it was not as great a success from the standpoint o~ financing this spring's baseball team as it was expected and desired to be, it was certainly a success :n providing a pleasant evening's entertainment for those in attendance.

The result was dar~ng. to say the least.

Perhaps, only a group of powerful young athletes with a rnagnificent disregard of timid conventionalism would attemp t it. It produced a quite modernistic effect. But those dancing were as sedate as though in attendance at a mid-Victorian dancing party under the vigiIant eye of the dear old lady herself. E may be irrelevant, but interesting, nevertheless, to remark that Lytton Strachey says the good queen, in her youth, was very fond of dancing as well as of riding. All of which is far afield from the decoration. In passing (a remark, by tbe way, often used by our instructors as a preliminary to launching upon a lengthy dissertation) we may give an humble word of advice to the
